H₂O: A LETTER TO THE OCEAN
No Plagiarism!S6iv8zPTecqHVvmR85m7posted on PＥNAＮＡ

Cascade does look beautiful,

But where does it go?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU1SXEDvD0

Does it vanish in the fold of foam,

Or drown in the dark it knows?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yMKFskJ76

What hides in that translucent realm —

Transparent, but do you ever truly show?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZm9xrBEQM

Ripples, tides, and currents form,

As the moonlight pours.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESy227BDtv

How are you so vital,

A necessity of life?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdke6QC7eE8

What lies in the mist?

Who knows what you hide?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsx6dFIp80

The way you soothe — ache fades away,

Only to burn as ice, then slip away.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfq9qIjn32

Shifting forms from one to two,

But you stay the same, lurking through.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlYQfQGnT6

Your depths are haunting,

Shallowness a thrive.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbaAmCqFXq

Consider you a cradle,

Or void undefined.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n6RVcvGRU

With each wave that hugs the shore,

You give something… or take some more.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nYKALW5dS

Is that the shore where silence began,

Or was it you who drowned the land?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7702wzvyH2

From where do you arise —

Harbinger to Obscurity, like a hymn long gone?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU2cmvWyCS

Whenever I talk to you,

I ask you:

What are you — W.A.T.E.R.?

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5AGoOKmCq

And you just stay stagnant,

As if saying:

Watch As Tears Expand Rear.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixXUGHT6Uz

So maybe you're not meant to answer,

But still I return —

Yearning for the answers

That you hold

In the unknown.

493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6auQ10mJto
